Reborn since 1993

Chapter 12 The most afraid of the air suddenly quiet

Although it feels a bit absurd, Zhang Xiaocheng now firmly believes in Li Dongling's words. After all, the satellite pot has been worked out. Zhang Xiaocheng still has the attitude of giving it a try and is ready to talk to Pingyang TV station.

The door of the Shangguan Town Component Factory, which had been silent for a long time, was opened again. People came out on bicycles and informed the original employees of the Shangguan Town Component Factory to come back to work according to the list and address.

A few years ago, this was a place that was envied by people in the town and the villages below. It was much better to receive wages from a state-owned factory than to dig things in the fields and rely on God for food!
  But things got worse later on. Since last year, production here has officially stopped, and the wages of those employees have also begun to be owed. Many people have even gone to the south and other big cities to work.

Early in the morning, Liu Caiyuan, who lives in Dahe Town, the town next to Shangguan Town, got up and prepared to go to the fields to work on crops. In the past, he was not required to do these tasks, so his mother-in-law and family did it. After all, his monthly salary , which can equal the harvest of several acres of land, and his mother-in-law is not willing to let him go to the fields for fear of getting tired. But now, without wages, he has to do these jobs like an old scalper, facing the loess and back to the sky.

Liu Caiyuan is skilled, and his welding skills are quite good, but he is helpless. Now, whether it is state-owned or private, everything is in short supply, except for people. He searched around Binh Duong City, and found that even temporary workers were not short of people. Being able to stay at home and farm.

As soon as he packed up his things, someone from the same town knocked on the door, "Caiyuan, someone came over just now and told you to go back to work. The component factory has resumed work today!"

"Resumption of work?!"

Hearing this, Liu Caiyuan's face suddenly showed joy, and all the farm tools in his hands fell to the ground.

At this time, his mother-in-law grabbed Liu Caiyuan and said, "Why are you going back? I owe you more than a year's salary, and I haven't paid a penny. Why don't you go back and make an IOU!"

"What do you know? Director Zhang promised us that as long as the factory has orders, he will ask us to go back to work.

Director Zhang will definitely make up for the unpaid wages in the future! "

Zhang Xiaocheng still has a high prestige in the hearts of people like Liu Caiyuan, and they are all convinced of him.

Although Zhang Xiaocheng is rough, he does things fairly and has never done anything to enrich his own pockets and favor his cronies. When the Shangguan Town Component Factory had no orders, Zhang Xiaocheng had been begging his grandfather to tell his grandmother to get orders, borrowing money from everywhere, and finally issued If he didn't pay wages, he didn't take wages himself first. If he had money, he would pay it to employees like Liu Caiyuan and others. In the end, he had no choice but to let them go home.

Riding his bicycle, Liu Caiyuan rushed towards the component factory. If he really was cheated, he would admit it!
  For most of the day, the gate of Shangguan Town Component Factory became lively. Bicycles came from all directions and the empty bicycle shed was almost full.

Seeing that so many employees had been called back in one morning, Li Dongling was also a little impressed by Zhang Xiaocheng. He could not pay wages for more than a year, but he still allowed so many people to be willing to do so even though he knew that their work might be in vain when they came back. When he comes back to work, Zhang Xiaocheng is really quite capable!

This may also be the style of this era. In this era that does not pay much attention to paper contracts, commitment and trust are the cornerstones of getting along between people. This is also the reason why Zhang Xiaocheng was able to recall these employees.

In fact, the reason why scammers are making a lot of money these days is also related to this. Most people have not experienced too many tricks and are unprepared. Scammers also take advantage of this trust relationship to commit fraud.

It won’t be possible in a few years, because there are too many scammers. Everyone has suffered a loss after being deceived several times. I know that some people’s verbal promises are no different from farts, or even worse than the latter. At least You can still make a loud noise when you fart. Relationships between people can only rely on laws and contracts to maintain social trust. We only recognize contracts but not people!

Standing in front of the factory, Zhang Xiaocheng stood on the stage with his hands on his hips, "I'm asking you to come back this time because our factory has cooperated with a company to develop a new product and we need you to produce it!

I, Zhang Xiaocheng, will not lie to you. I cannot pay you the wages I owed you before, and I may not be able to pay you the wages you will get when you come back to work this time.

I can only guarantee that as long as the new product is produced and can be sold to make money, I will definitely pay back what I owe everyone. If there are still people who have not received their wages, I, Zhang Xiaocheng, will not receive a penny of salary! "

"We believe in Factory Director Zhang!"

After hearing Zhang Xiaocheng's words, Li Dongling saw that no one left the scene. Someone shouted and everyone started talking, followed by applause. After the production workshop was opened, everyone went in one after another and walked to their posts.

Zhang Xiaocheng, a man who had been on the battlefield and had been under pressure for more than a year, his eyes were a little red at this time, and he just raised his head, as if there was sand in his eyes.

The entire Shangguan Town Component Factory started to get busy. Various materials were continuously processed, and then brought into the production workshop for assembly and debugging. Li Dongling and Zhou Wenyan were responsible for technical training. This job was Zhou Wenyan's specialty, and he was better than Li Dongling. Many are good at it. Zhou Wenyan has no temper. No matter who encounters problems, he teaches them patiently. Even if he is asked the same question several times, he is not angry at all. He is also willing to worry about big and small things. Zhou Wenyan keeps the entire workshop in order, and Li Dongling is also happy to delegate power. Leave all the work in the production workshop to Zhou Wenyan and let him live the addiction of a workshop director.

When the cannon is fired, there is ten thousand taels of gold. When the production of satellite pots begins, the 150,000 yuan is constantly decreasing visibly to the naked eye. Even if employees do not need to be paid temporarily, they can buy aluminum, feeders, motherboards, main control chips, and customization. There are people eating horse chews out of the packaging boxes. Even if wages are not paid, how can we still deny people food? !

On the third day, the first stargazing satellite receiver passed the final test and was sent to the warehouse for packaging. Li Dongling, Zhang Xiaocheng, Zhou Wenyan and others all came here.

The person in charge of packaging counted all the parts and put them together and started packaging. Apart from the pot, the most exquisite thing was the set-top box. The box was specially customized. In addition to the brand "Stargazing" on it, There is also a box that Li Dongling only made a simple logo for. It is a satellite pot similar to a radar. You can explore the signal pattern under the starry sky. There are two poems on the box. Look at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk, and appreciate the faint clouds at daytime. Stargazing at night explains the origin of the name of the brand Stargazing.

In future generations, this packaging would not be considered very exquisite, but in this era that does not pay much attention to packaging and publicity, the packaging of Guanxing, even if Chang Xiaocheng looks at it, has a sense of high-end and "high-tech" gadgets. , it should be this thing in front of you.

Seeing that the first stargazing satellite receiver was packaged, Zhang Xiaocheng, who had blisters on his mouth in a hurry in just a few days, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Pulling Li Dongling aside, Zhang Xiaocheng said to Li Dongling, "I asked someone to contact Zheng Zutai, the director of Pingyang TV Station. He will come here in the afternoon!"

The TV station thought that Zhang Xiaocheng wanted to advertise, so they sent someone over.

These days, no matter which company or department it is, it is actually not going well. The TV station seems to be prosperous and is the leading brother in the media industry, but it also depends on which TV station it is, CCTV, provincial station, provincial TV station, etc. , there is no shortage of companies to advertise, just sit and wait for the advertising companies to come to your door and collect the money.

But for ordinary city stations, as well as lower county stations, etc., it is bleak. It is not companies looking for them to advertise, but TV stations coming to beg these companies to advertise.

If Pingyang TV station knew that Chang Hsiao-cheng was competing for business with them, they would probably kill him and not come here unless they wrote a story and had the host on the TV station rant about Chang Hsiao-cheng for half an hour.

Li Dongling glanced behind him, "Now we can produce 60 satellite pots every day, and the first batch can produce about 700 satellite pots. If we can reach a cooperation with Pingyang TV Station, we can start selling!"

Life or death depends on how well these first batch of satellite pots are sold. If they can be sold, then everything will be fine. If they are not sold, then it is impossible to say that Zhang Xiaocheng will really be forced to climb to the roof.

In the afternoon, a jeep that looked weathered parked at the entrance of the Shangguan Town Component Factory. Zheng Zutai opened the door and stepped out.

This Jeep is older than Zheng Zutai has been in the TV station. After passing through several hands, it became the official vehicle of Binh Duong TV station. It has to be taken care of and maintained at all times. That is, it is only used when something happens. It was brought out to fill the scene.

Looking at the electronics factory in front of him, Zheng Zutai didn't even know that there was such a factory in Pingyang, and that it could even find a TV station to advertise.

After going in and seeing the busy scene inside, Zheng Zutai had a smile on his face. He felt that he should be able to get a big deal this time. The TV station has been around for several months and has not won any deals. The bonus in the unit has started from the beginning. After the New Year, I haven't had it once, and even Zheng Zutai felt that his mouth was full of oil and smell.

"Director Zheng, right?" Zhang Xiaocheng and Li Dongling came out to greet Zheng Zutai. Zhang Xiaocheng enthusiastically held Zheng Zutai's hand, "How about we visit our factory first?"

"Alright!"

Zheng Zutai thought for a while and agreed. Those who advertise on TV stations must also understand their customers, and they cannot accept money in vain.

With a smile on his face, Zheng Zutai followed Zhang Xiaocheng into the workshop. Seeing the busy figures inside, Zheng Zutai, still with Li Dongling's weird look on his face, praised Zhang Xiaocheng, "I didn't expect that your factory's business is so busy. The whole Pingyang City is... It’s rare!”

It wasn't until he arrived at the testing station that Zheng Zutai saw the testing personnel testing the set-top box. When satellite TV channels appeared on the TV next to him, the smile on his face began to solidify and he was silent for a while, "I don't know what business you are in yet." ?”
